सुनि प्रभु बचन मगन सब भये । को हम कहाँ बिसरि तन गये ॥
एकटक रहे जोरि कर आगे । सकहिं न कछु कहि अति अनुरागे ॥
suni prabhu bacana magana saba bhaye | ko hama kahām̐ bisari tana gaye ||
ekaṭaka rahe jori kara āge | sakahiṃ na kachu kahi ati anurāge ||

What happens in this chapter
Gifts for the friends; Angada stays seated
Hearing the Lord, the friends forget who and where they are. They stand with folded hands, gazing, too full of love to speak. Seeing such love, he teaches them special wisdom, but they can only look at his lotus feet. Then he sends for ornaments and garments of lovely colours. He dresses Sugriva first, in clothes Bharata prepared with his own hands. At the Lord's bidding Lakshmana dresses Vibhishana. Angada sits without moving; seeing his love, the Lord says nothing to him. Raghunath dresses Jambavan, Nila and the rest, and they bow and leave, Rama's form in their hearts. Then Angada rises and, with wet eyes and folded hands, speaks words soaked in love.
परम प्रेम तिन्ह कर प्रभु देखा । कहा बिबिध विधि ज्ञान बिसेखा ॥
प्रभु सनमुख कछु कहत न पारहिं । पुनि पुनि चरन-सरोज निहारहिँ ॥
parama prema tinha kara prabhu dekhā | kahā bibidha vidhi jñāna bisekhā ||
prabhu sanamukha kachu kahata na pārahiṃ | puni puni carana-saroja nihārahim̐ ||
तब प्रभु भूषन बसन मगाए । नाना रङ्ग अनूप सुहाये ॥
सुग्रीवहिं प्रथमहिँ पहिराये । बसन भरत निज़ हाथ बनाये ॥
taba prabhu bhūṣana basana magāe | nānā raṅga anūpa suhāye ||
sugrīvahiṃ prathamahim̐ pahirāye | basana bharata niza hātha banāye ||
प्रभु प्रेरित लछिमन पहिराये । लङ्कापति रघुपति मन भाये ॥
अङ्गद बैठ रहा नहिँ डोला । प्रीति देखि प्रभु ताहि न बोला ॥
prabhu prerita lachimana pahirāye | laṅkāpati raghupati mana bhāye ||
aṅgada baiṭha rahā nahim̐ ḍolā | prīti dekhi prabhu tāhi na bolā ||
जामवन्त नीलादि सब, पहिराये रघुनाथ ।
हियँ धरि राम रूप सब, चले नाइ पद माथ ॥
jāmavanta nīlādi saba, pahirāye raghunātha |
hiyam̐ dhari rāma rūpa saba, cale nāi pada mātha ||
तब अङ्गद उठि नाइ सिर, सजल नयन कर जोरि ।
अति बिनीत बोलेउ बचन, मनहुँ प्रेम रस बोरि ॥
taba aṅgada uṭhi nāi sira, sajala nayana kara jori |
ati binīta boleu bacana, manahum̐ prema rasa bori ||
